Journal: "Are You Japanese?"

Note: This Journal entry was written on October 1, 2001, as I walked on the Old Tokaido. Take a look at that day's Logbook for more.

Three times in two days I've been asked this question.

Words-and-Pictures: Chiryu Shrine

Note: This selection of Words-and-Pictures was made on October 1, 2001, as I walked on the Old Tokaido.

Chiryu, a small town in Aichi Prefecture, is Station #39 (from Tokyo) on the Old Tokaido Highway. You can read about my visit to Chiryu in my Logbook.

Words-and-Pictures: Statuary

Note: This selection of Words-and-Pictures was made on October 1, 2001, as I walked on the Old Tokaido.

This statuary yard is located between Chiryu and Narumi in Aichi Prefecture, which are Stations #39 and 40 respectively (from Tokyo) on the Old Tokaido Highway. You can read about my visit in my Logbook.
